Summary of the contracting process

The City of Edinburgh Council plans to lease or buy robotic line-marking machines for marking its sports pitches in Edinburgh. The requirement is for equipment, rather than a service or construction project, and is grouped as one lot. Suppliers of robotic sports-pitch line-marking machinery are the most directly relevant; businesses offering other equipment may wish to check the specification to establish whether it fits the requirement.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the Council has stated its intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. It expects to publish a further notice on 11 December 2026. Interested providers are asked to complete a questionnaire, alongside the specification, by 28 October 2026 and return it by email. The Council says responses will help it decide the right approach to the requirement. The planned purchase or lease is presented as a single lot. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This requirement is likely to suit suppliers able to provide robotic line-marking machines for use across a council’s sports-pitch estate. The Council is seeking provider input before settling its procurement approach, so suppliers with relevant equipment and a clear understanding of how it could meet the specification may be well placed to contribute at this stage. The questionnaire and specification offer a basis for assessing fit and preparing for the planned procurement. No particular accreditation, technical capability beyond the equipment requirement, or supplier capacity threshold is stated here.
